Smoke Summary: I returned to Maine because I knew that they wanted to know about these Bushes who never graduated from any place, these Bushes who can put themselves in the White House with only 20 votes if necessary, for there are 100s of thousands in their private army; plus I know that Maine would be the first to say, "no mas".

Hey,
My name is Scott Thomas Smith and I recently finished rewriting a novel which involves social issues and youth and I was wondering if anyone had any means of helping me with getting it published. I don't have an agent and can't really afford to pay anyone to represent me or anything, but I'm hoping to get my work out to a readership. If anyone could help out in any way or knows of any leads in publishing, or if you'd just like to read my work, please email me at theneonheart@gmail.com . I'd greatly appreciate it.
